How are you locking up your Nolan helmet when your trunk is full?

I know that is what I use to use when my helmet had a "D" ring ... Nolan uses a clamp type strap.

I use a retractable cable lock. I slip it through the loop on one of the helmet straps and then lock it on one of the rear hand grips. The rear helmet locks will not work with the Nolans. Here is a link to a retractable cable lock.

they slide thru the red clip....then hang on the bottom of the trunk...

That's the ticket. We have two Nolan helmets, the holder goes through the fastener, locks perfectly! I also bought two helmet bags (just nylon) with slots to slip through if there is a little humidity in the air...
Yes, there is a 'skinny' t-lock similar to the regular helmet lock attachments that fit through the d-rings. It's made by Nolan and has their name on one side. The down-side is their not chromed just plated with something. They may be stainless, thats how they look anyway. I was turned on to them by my honda parts guy. I didn't even know they existed.

Thanks! You've solved 2 quandaries of mine at once. :bow: First, how to hang these new Nolan lids. And B), what are those hangy-down thingies I've been seeing on the back of some Wings. I was thinking that they might somehow be related to the ride bells that some cruisers are big on.
Now I find out that the answer is more mundane, but much more practical.

Heres what we use just slip it between the straps, I did not add a D-ring. If someone wants your helment there gone. Lock only keep honest people honest.

I use the t straps that have a motorcycle shape on them, they were narrow enough to go thru the strap locking machanism. Think I got them at wingstuff couple years ago
Nolan Helmet Hanger
I know at least one manufactorer is making the helmet hangars a bit thinner now so they fit though the Nolan racket connection. Sorry don't know the name of the manufactorer.
I went to the hardware store and got a couple of T brackets. They have holds in them for screws which work great to hang on the under trunk connector. They are a bit wider and longer than you really need but you can use a bench grinder to shape them.
